Bellmawr is home to the main post office for the area, one of the largest in the state of New Jersey. In late October 2001 the office was closed due to possible anthrax contamination (see 2001 anthrax attacks).
In July 2008, along with Telus Mobility Bell introduced charges of 15Â¢ for incoming SMS messages. Critics were quick to point out that there is no way of blocking incoming message fees and suggested Bell and Telus were price fixing as both had announced the fees simultaneously.
1 Bell builds most of its towers in Eastern Canada, while most of Telus' towers are in Western Canada. ^  Telus numbers include those of recently acquired of Public and may be different from CWTA-reported.
